What happened in London to make him so mean?

He clearly hates himself - he doesn't want to be how he is, and we've seen that in a few looks he's given.

More than a bad split from a boyfriend?

He was forced to be the town's Pearly King and it's messed with his head.

This always happens in Corrie

People go to That London - and they come back evil to the core.

Its particularly noticeable because Todd was such a sweet young man before and it is like he has had a personality transplant

Its getting offensive to Londoners

I watched a 1976 episode and Suzie Birchall traveled down to "that London" and prepared herself to be robbed, mugged etc

Never mind she lived in a rough bit of Manchester

Salford, not Manchester.

Correct FGS... Not only are they two separate Cities divided by the river Irwell... It is actually a hanging offence to label anyone from Salford a Manc...

Well it is round these parts anyways...

it would have to be something very serious to explain the complete personality change.
maybe he suffers from bi-polar, or was raped and there's a lot of self-loathing and other complicated issues that has stemmed from that

In what way...?
Are you familiar with both the areas...?
What evidence have you got to support such a comment...?

I'll await your reply...

Thanks...

Maybe someone close to him died for or because of him. He hates himself and refuses to let people get close to him so he lashes out.

Sean is going to get a rape storyline? Oh god no I hate the character.

Todd is suffering from rabies, he got bitten by a wild honey badger in London as they are quite common down here

I thought it was more him being hurt by a bisexual man so he wrecked havoc on poor Marcus.

Don't know but Anthony Cotton was carping on about a storyline never been seen before and it's a gay storyline. I can't remember any gay rape storylines so I'm just speculating but no doubt Eastenders have already done gay rape.

I thought that maybe Todd will get himself into bother on a night out and Sean leaps in to rescue him but ends up coming off worse, this will no doubt then cause the character of Todd to stop being like Alexis Morell/Carrington/Colby/Dexter/Rowan

It's set in Weatherfield though not Manchester or Salford.

That sounds like a good storyline. There has to be something to make Todd more likeable. I like him, but in the way we're meant to (I think) - love to hate.

Was told years ago it was very rough and a bit dangerous walking around there in the evenings. Lots of crime. Unless it has improved in recent years?

Melon-headed Eileen needs to take a good look at herself in the mirror for the way she's raised her kids, all three of them are absolute misfits.

Todd Hitler is such a complete heel he can't even get on with himself, Jason is thirty and still reads the Beano, whilst Sean is a local pariah who's still living at home with his mum despite the fact he's 47 and bald.

Yet Eileen still has the cheek to jab her finger of ridicule in Gail's direction.
Lordy bloody lord.

PS. I notice the scarecrow has started washing her hair now too, now that Des & Tony are on the scene.
Completely ignoring the fact they both have women already of course - melon head is probably planning to off them with an everyday kitchen appliance if they get in her way.
No wonder Todd has such poor morals with that oaf for a mother.
